Trimming dog's hair, Cyclaman and Birds;



Being Trimmed at the DIY store
At the one corner of a big DIY store in my city, I happened to see a dog being trimmed its hair. (First Time for me to see ;-)  The cute puddle seemed to know what is going on and really well-behaved.  And the handsome young man is doing good job (tenderly) for her or him.   Although I couldn't see  lovely finished style, I was happy to be able to see sweet scene ♡♡♡


Cyclamen and  Birds
Last year on a cultural festival at the agricultural high school close to my house,  many cyclamens were being sold. I felt THANKFUL for the students' work and people looked happy buying them.

I have no idea whether he is drinking water or having early dinner :-) 

Picture inside is my tiny yard from early Feb.   My husband had a cold at that time and then I caught it from him p;-)  As it's the Valentine month, I thought about helping each other;  Hope you all will have a sweet Valentine Month with your loved ones ♡♡♡

  4. Thank you Miyako and Happy Valentine's to both of you (and I hope you don't share any more colds). Your home looks cozy in the all the snow ... makes a lovely winter scene. Beautiful bird and cyclamens too. My in-laws had a dog that looked like that one and he loved being groomed ... it was as if he knew he was beautiful!

  5. Aww cute woofie getting nice hair cut! When I stop by nearby pet store, I often see many dogs in the grooming room. I’m impressed that they all seem very relaxed like the sweet dog in your photos :-) Beautiful cyclamens grown by students and the bird video is so cute! I wonder if he was drinking water or having dinner, too :-)
    Your garden is beautiful covered in snow! Wishing you and your husband a lovely Valentine’s Day! xo

  6. Hello Miyako,
    The poodle seems very content with all that attention!
    Such a beautiful collection of cyclamens. I used to have one but that was a long time ago.
    Those are very sweet photos of the Thrush.
    I hope both you and your husband are over your colds now. The snowy scene looks so pretty! Take care and thank you for your lovely valentine wishes... sending them to you too.
    Warm cheers, Sue xx

  7. The cyclamen are gorgeous - my favorite colors are the white, and the light pink one! Oh, you got to know that in the Los Angeles area where I lived for 3+ decades, cutting a dog's hair is a big thing, there are plenty of places where it's done (they go beyond cutting, it is like a make-up makeover). Some dog owners go every month with their dog to have it done! (maybe Hollywood's influence:):) )
    Wish a complete recovery for you both!

  8. Lovely post. Indeed, the cyclamen are gorgeous. I’m glad our dog doesn’t need to be groomed. She hates to have her nails clipped. Have a wonderful week!

  11. Cyclamen are so pretty. I had a poodle when I was younger and I did the "grooming". It's a big job and so nice to find someone who does it with such care. Cute dog, too! Love seeing the birds. Snow in your yard! So pretty. Hope you are over your cold. Happy Monday!

  13. Such pretty pots of cyclamen add a lot of cheeriness to February days. I have a pot of pink ones on the table. I'm sorry you've had a cold and hope you soon feel well again. Happy Valentine's Day to you and your husband.

  19. Cute photos of the dog trimming :) Cyclamen are so fabulous plants, but they don't like me - and always get yellow rapidly.
    Wishing you Happy Valentine's Day ❤︎

  20. Dearest Tamago,
    Wow, looking at your photos of the poodle trimming, that is also quite an art and one hopes the y don't ever bite or react aggressive.
    Love cyclamen, such an elegant plant with pretty leaves too.
    Yeah, what is the bird picking up?
    Your photo with the snow inside your picturesque garden is precious.
    Sending you hugs,
    Mariette
